Lifehouse Single Cuts Out The Jam

(7/29/02, 3 p.m. ET) -- Lifehouse's new single, "Spin," is not exactly the same song that will be heard on the group's upcoming album, Stanley Climbfall. The single is an edited version of the album-opening track, with an approximately one-minute-long closing jam excised.
The group says the coda was played only for fun during rehearsals, but that they couldn't not play it once tape was rolling. Although frontman Jason Wade tells LAUNCH the some unplanned chaos also made its presence known. "We started rocking out and my headphones fell off. And when your headphones fall off in the studio, all you can hear is drums 'cause you, like, have your own little world in there. So the phones fall off and all the sudden I'm rocking out and I can't hear anything except Rick (Woolstenhulme). And I walk around the corner out of my little protective shield and then all of the sudden--Ron (Aniello) was playing with us, too, our producer--he throws his head back and throws his headphones off, and Serge (Andrade) does the same and all the sudden, like, we all can't hear anything but we're still playing. And that was the take that we ended up using," he says.
Wade adds, "It's a little sloppy but it's a really cool memory."
Stanley Climbfall arrives September 17 from DreamWorks Records.
